      I have a friend from Jewish descent, and I tend to pick up little phrases and sayings...pretty soon I'll be typing "Jeez" on things...
      (I also had a friend from Italian descent, and I was stuck in the "yo" mode for a while...I'm backwards now...)
      I was stuck on "eh" from my Canadian friend for a while, too...
      Of course, I'm from redneckian descent, so you never know, I may show up with some real ringers...Yee-haw, y'all.

At this point I was making preparations for college and one day decided to take a jaunt to the relatively few comic stores that pepper the stark redneckian landscape.

      But even more redneckian, is our new roadkill law, that allows us to eat anything we [can] hit with our vehicles. . . *sigh* (I can see why I can't find any furries living here..)
